2 Responses to Calligra 2.8.7 Released

The reason I’m using Caligra Words right now is that Libre writer bombed BADLY for writing a long novel. After some hundreds of pages are entered the save function craps out and refuses to save edits. Is Words okay to write a novel in? I just need to save it as a single file in HTML to convert it to a Kindle Ebook. Any answer will be appreciated.
